Chatelaine

I’m a fan of both dense, fudgy brownies and chewy chocolate chip cookies, and a blondie is what you’d get if the two united. This variation is spiked with tahini, adding an underlying nutty richness from the sesame paste, and embellished with chopped chocolate and finished with flaky sea salt—and the combination is both sweet and salty. In other words, it’s totally amazing.

The effects of many aphrodisiacs are greatly exaggerated. One study found that you’d need to eat 25 pounds of chocolate to significantly alter your mood. But chili peppers, like the ones featured in our fiery oil, are the real deal — they quicken the pulse, induce sweating and stimulate the release of endorphins. This 15-minute recipe is just what you need to kick things up a notch in the dead of winter.

Tender cabbage leaves are layered in between a hearty rice and sausage filling, and simmered in a fresh sauce for an absolutely delicious dinner casserole.

Cheesy, saucy and meaty (thanks to the portobellos), this parmigiana is a must-try for vegetarians and carnivores alike.
